I HAVE ACHIEVED BRI'ISH.

The most important part of camping: Big hot dog.

If I won big money I wouldn't tell anyone, but there'd be signs. The ideal winterbunker.

i didn't reach my goal last month. i paid my bills by dipping into reserves. anything you can give is appreciated. i need to pay my bills and feed my bird. ko-fi.com/mxkai/goal?g=0

I was so moved by this Christian dad’s response to a despondent trans kid whose father wouldn’t support their care on “Christian” grounds. It’s never OK to use Christ as a weapon of hate. God is love. 💗 www.reddit.com/r/cisparentt...

Off work for two weeks and I bugger up plans on the first day. Nice. Nah that's exactly what I wanted.

Jerry cans? Check. Supplies and equipment? Check. Jazzy lights? Check. Tiny plane buddy? Check. Time to explore!

reminder

Just managed to download it before I have to head out to work, but this looks like fun!

I got a fanart from a server the other day. What an absolutely amazing gift! Artist is www.instagram.com/tanuki_wolf/

The Duff is haunted. It says 0⁰00...

Based take.

It's finally ween.

Back from holiday and straight back into idiocy. Featuring @pitchibara.bsky.social

Goodbye, 563! 👋 Hope to see this again in future, a very impressive engine. This coming from a staunch North Easterner is almost blasphemy! Still, it's got a canny amount of brass so...acceptable. 😛

563 climbing out of Grosmont towards Goathland, with some lovely early morning sunshine! ☀️

The T3 running into Levisham on another shuttle run. The sun came out yesterday which made for far better pictures!

Contender for loudest bark 😂👍 Pendennis Castle strutting out of Grosmont yesterday evening.

T3 no.563 and no.926 'Repton' hustle through Darnholm today. The T3 is exquisite. 👌

9/25 is #DollyDay

Holiday time!

Please go for a trip on the P.S. Waverley if you get the chance, recently did the excursion to Swanage, it'll be a day you'll always remember

This was a fun watch, and the end result is awesome. Got me tempted to replay the original Dawn of War again. 😂 youtu.be/Ot7WjMCAZTA?...

The road engine gets their name! I was a little worried the silicone wouldn't hold, but it did at the highest temperature and so the nameplates stayed on haha. Pretty happy with the result! 👍

Why are there so many BIG FLYING BUGS IN HERE SUMMER IS OVER. GET OUT.

Burned out again this weekend past, only managed to doodle one unfinished...doodle? I guess. Still, got a bit of time off work coming up, so perhaps then I'll get back on the waggons.

Me, about to enter any hobby store: Mm...I really should sell some stuff, you know? Focus on one aspect of my hobby. Also me five minutes later: youtu.be/ihgo5SgQofY?...

It's like the knuckle draggers that attack ambulances or fire engines, but worse because its race related. Support all the heroic life savers.

A fellow passenger and I talked with a very vulnerable person at the railway station on the way home from work. Stayed with them, kept their attention until the ambulance came along. Hell of a thing. I sincerely wish the best for them.

My road engine has a name now. 👍

Unfortunately I ended up struggling to finish the last round of comms, they're done but I'm burned out. Hopefully next weekend I can perhaps get back on track. (aharr.)

don't hatewatch it. don't pirate it. don't waste your time with it. fuck JKR and her mediocre at best books. it won't kill the sadness in you to dig your claws into this rotten IP

Me, leaving the doctors after they took bloods: 'Vampiiiiresssss...'

A locomotive portrait done for @panzerleopard.bsky.social Challenging painting as I don't do as many American types, but it was a fun one. 👌

Sorry for the quiet spell. It's been a week, huh. Hopefully we'll be back on the art track tomorrow.

High time we get back to the manual clicky-clackers and ring-a-dings!

New gogs acquired.

No art for this week folks, I'm hoping to get back onto it Sunday. Work is uh...well, work. Also I'm partially blind until I get my new glasses haha.

Everyone, meet Lucy she moved in on Saturday c: #cat

Four comms painted. They didn't turn out too bad, and skipping the lineart part and just painting them saves a lot of time haha.

Hey so as a heads up. This. Is. All. Commissions. PayPal is DREADFUL to work with. Do not mention the word. Do not censor the word. Please just pay the invoice. If you do the artist you commissioned WILL get in trouble.

NEW BOOK!

I got gifted a DLC of some big fellas, it'd be rude not to have a drive...

🚂 the workshop is open! 🛠️✨ Pitchi's Live2D rigging while Mocha experiments with a new painting technique 🎨 bring a project and come create with us! 💛

Well, it's the weekend, so time for a cheeky bit o' art innit. (I really need to come up with a new streaming image for these posts) www.twitch.tv/old_coal

I broke my glasses at work, so I actually have to hold them like this until I can get replacements <_> Welp.
